Formscan - Dunstall Rambler is likely to be popular after his 18-length success at Worcester, although a 12lb rise and significant step up in grade are both concerns. With that in mind, preference is for MAMBONUMBERFIVE, who won the Adonis at Kempton in February and his subsequent Grade 1 defeat at this venue can be forgiven. A mark of 128 should be workable for Ben Pauling's gelding as he looks to exploit an 8lb age allowance on his chasing debut. Others to note are Highlands Legacy, Alcedo and Javert Allen.
